Israel’s Channel 12 revealed that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fears that the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague will issue orders to arrest him and other officials due to violations in the war on Gaza.

The channel revealed that an urgent discussion took place on Tuesday at the Prime Minister’s Office that has remained confidential until now, in which worrying scenarios and serious concerns emerged that would allow the issuance of international arrest warrants from ICC in The Hague against senior Israeli officials, security leaders and politicians, including Netanyahu himself.

It reported that the highest political and legal elite in Israel were present at the discussion. The Israeli channel noted that the reason for issuing international arrest warrants was the war in Gaza.

      Your every day Israeli is generally fine with the genocide for the most part, treating Palestinians like inhuman animals is nothing new really, they’re just mad that he’s doing nothing to bring the Israeli hostages back and instead using it as a pretense to continue clinging to power.

          Uh huh, where were the Israeli protestors against apartheid for the last 40 years “cUpCaKe”? Why are there Israelis literally at the border having dance parties to block aid?

          Almost like Israelis only give a fuck because there are Israeli hostages and Netanyahu and the IDF don’t give a shit about getting them back.

            Someday I hope you learn that monocultures at scale are rare and that there has been a peace movement within both Israel and Palestine that have been working the entire time.

              And some day I hope you come to realize that apartheid is not some entity that exists on its own with its own will, but rather is a culture issue and a reflection of one populations viewing another as less deserving subhumans.

              Miss me with that bullshit that Israelis give a shit about Palestinian humanity and dignity. Show me a protest in Israel from the past 40 years, of more than a few hundred people, where Israelis are advocating for Palestinians.

              Israeli culture is based on ethno-nationalism and it produces the fruits of ethno-nationalism.

        Prior to Palestinians voting Hamas into power, 61% of Israelis supported a two-state solution. Netanyahu and the far-right minority in power refused.

        It dropped to 25% once Hamas took power by force.

        It dropped to 13% after the October 7th attack.

        The average Israeli doesn’t want war. They don’t trust Hamas or, now, Netanyahu. Don’t speak about what you don’t know.

          Prior to Palestinians voting Hamas into power, Netanyahu funding the rise of Hamas to power, 61% of Israelis supported a two-state solution. Netanyahu and the far-right minority in power refused.

          FTFY.

          But yes. It’s not in dispute that your average Israeli is pro-genocide. And a two state solution is impossible, it is basically a euphemism for saying “Things should go exactly the way they are.”. A one non-ethnostate solution is the only answer. Israel already fully occupies and controls all Palestinian lands, it is time for Palestinians (who have equal right to the land Israel occupies) to be treated as equal citizens and given representation in Israel.

            It absolutely is in dispute. I know Israelis that are adamantly against Netanyahu’s actions in Gaza. You’re ignorant, and spreading disinformation. Criticize Netanyahu all you want, but do not lie about having knowledge of the desires of people you do not know.

              Yeah, no. The two state solution is a non-starter, how exactly do you think that’s going to work? You think these fucking settlers who murdered and drove palestinians from their homes, who casually murder without any consequence from the Israeli government or public are going to just stop occupying these areas so Palestinians can have a state?

              No, not even you can be that naive. You know deep inside that it’s simply an excuse to keep the Forever Occupation going.

              Two state solution is the exact same as saying you support the apartheid continuing indefinitely.

            It’s entirely possible that while Biden continues to support Israel he’s pulling his support of Netanyahu. The two are not the same thing, much as Bibi may wish it.

                  OK, let me give you another analogy. US didn’t “agree” with Sadam at certain point in time. Did they arm Iraq while not supporting Sadam? The point is, US is supporting Netanyahu with providing all the toys for his genocide. Saying that they don’t support Netanyahu and at the same time providing all the support is funny.

            People really don’t want to talk about his adminstration’s part in giving Israel the international space to perpetrate this portion of the genocide with american bombs.

              That’s because liberals support genocide and defend Biden like they will all die the instant he’s not re elected.

                And continues to sell weapons to Israel.

    The court told him what he needs to do to prevent a genocide. The only reason they’d issue an arrest warrant was if he ignored their orders.
